Turrets in the Water

Turrets in the Water

These might have been connected to the island by a wooden dock, I'm not sure... but these structures rising out of the water were quite beautiful.

Ahhhhhhh, Banerman's. One of the "Holy Grail" abandoned sites. I plan to take the tour next Saturday. It will be worth the money. Thank you for this appetizer, Mr. Motts!

I read somewhere that a tour was 40 bucks per person. Well worth it. The money is for a good cause. I'd love to take a vacation and go see this place.

I've been to this island several times. It's very calming. And me and my mom find tons of broken pottery and blue glass. =3

This is one of two places that are easily visible on the same train. Taking a train from Penn station in NYC to Buffalo will give you the opportunity to see the arsenal, then many miles away near the trip's end (or beginning if leaving buffalo from exchange st. i believe), Buffalo Central Terminal.

i believe they were once conected to the island by stone cause ways, visible now only during low tide, this is the reason boats do not come close to the island
